I grew up as a reluctant reader, in spite of the fact that my father published over 70 books. Now I write action-adventures & mysteries, especially for tween boys, that avid boy readers and girls enjoy just as much. My blog, Books for Boys http://booksandboys.blogspot.com is dedicated to drawing attention to the importance of reading. Keep up your good work.

The girls are reading at a level 2 grades above their level & the boys can't pass a bookstore without begging to go in. I send my boys books once a month. When my oldest had his tonsils out a few months back, I read to him in the recovery room. It was a great bonding experience. Old Man and The Sea is a selection I never thought of till you mentioned it. This is a bit off topic, and I'm sure you've seen it, but "The Dangerous Book for Boys" is a big favorite.
